Prizes will be presented at the end of the Intermission of
the Elora Writers’ Festival on Sunday, May 25 to any finalists and winners who are present. For those who cannot attend, Contest Chair Jean Mills will be in touch about sending your prize to you.
Since we understand that Teen and Youth winners may choose
not to attend the Festival readings, contest winners in these two categories (including
Honourable Mentions) are welcome to drop in to Aboyne Hall, Wellington County
Museum at about 2:15 p.m. (the approximate start of the Intermission). Look for Contest Assistant Marilyn Kleiber or
Judge Lisa Dalrymple for assistance.
The judges commented on the high quality of submissions in all categories. Congratulations to every writer who took the brave step of submitting a story to this year's competition, and special congratulations to our 2014 finalists and winners!
